Was there a time when business was ever ethical?

Certainly. Throughout history, some businesses have been more ethical and some have been less so. In smaller communities, small businesses have been almost as subject to the local impact of reputation as individuals, and failure to behave ethically was likely to result in business failure as other members of the community would be less likely to trust and deal with the less ethical business. Larger businesses, and even small businesses in large communities, have always been less subject to those pressures, but that does not mean that some of those were not ethical in their dealings.

What are independent shops?

Independent shops are businesses that are independently owned and not part of a franchise or 'chain' of stores, services, or retail outlets. Typically, independent shops are small businesses that have one or two locations, and are owned by local small business owners, rather than large corporations. One of the advantages of being a franchise owner is that they are usually provided with a set of management techniques and marketing tools that have been developed and improved by experts over a long period of time. That often increases the small business owner's chances of success. In addition to that, when an entrepreneur becomes an owner of a well-know franchise, they benefit from the existing reputation and ongoing advertising campaigns of the national or international brand with which they're affiliated.
